www.vandsent.com Everything’s Rosie continues to enjoy the success that comes naturally to a series that experiences enthusiastic commitment from CBeebies in the UK and prominent broadcasters worldwide. Rosie and her Friends have maintained their position as a staple within the portfolio of children’s brands. Enjoying a regular prime time broadcast slot, Everything’s Rosie has consistently achieved high ratings, and has over 32m YouTube hits and nearly 3m iPlayer requests. In response to this continuing and growing popularity, a fourth series of Everything’s Rosie, co- produced with JCC, is now in production for delivery in 2014. In addition a 24’ Special is in production for delivery in 2013. Packed with humour, play and a real sense of
adventure that underpin the ethos of Rosie’s world, the storylines in Series 4 are more upbeat and engaging. From best friend Raggles to the loveable and wise Oakley, each character plays their part in creating an environment which resonates with pre-schoolers around the globe. A flourishing licensing programme with publishing
and DVD at its heart complements the strong broadcast activity. Egmont added to its successful range with two new titles in 2013, and NBC Universal has released four DVD titles with the release of the fifth title anticipated for early 2014. Added to this Rosie and her Friends are featured on a regular basis in Redan’s compilation magazine, Friends: Fun to Learn, and in the compilation titles, CBeebies Weekly, Animals and Toybox. In keeping with recent trends, Everything’s Rosie has expanded into a programme of multimedia including apps. Egmont UK have published two titles for the iPad and one for the iPhone, concurrent to four compilation apps and one mini app featuring Rosie from Immediate Media. Two further releases are anticipated later this year. Earlier in 2013 Avanquest launched a very successful Nintendo DS Game which leapt into number seven in the children’s chart and more recently a licence has been signed with Daredevil Development for education apps launching early next year. Apparel lines are featured in Tesco and Asda, and Danilo holds the licence for Social Stationery with product in Sainsbury’s, Tesco, Asda and Martin McCall. This momentum is now extending into international
territories with publishing licensees Random House and Panini on board in Spain and De Agostini and Ecolandia Junior following suit in Italy. NBC Universal has launched two DVD titles in Italy and Divisa have launched eight titles in Spain. More recently in Italy, Nestle has been appointed a licensee with Chocolate Confectionery launching Spring 2014. In South Africa where Everything’s Rosie enjoys TV exposure on two platforms, Apparel and Footwear are being launched into Woolworths this month and licensing activity is anticipated to extend into further categories for 2014.

The DC
Comics franchise leads the charge with new licensing opportunities for Batman and Superman.

2014 is another standout year for tent pole films with the launch of Godzilla
(May 2014) and the final movie in Peter Jackson’s The Hobbit Trilogy with The Hobbit: There and Back Again; which hits cinema screens in December 2014. WB Studio’s television properties also provide major commercial opportunities for visitors to the show as preparations are made for the 20th anniversary of Friends in 2014 and US sitcom the Big Bang Theory continues to smash TV ratings and make waves at retail. WBCP will demonstrate its continued commitment to supporting its evergreen
brands Scooby-Doo, Looney Tunes and Tom and Jerry and iconic movies, including The Wizard of Oz which celebrates its 75th anniversary in 2014, will also feature on the bill as WBCP demonstrates how the studio’s dedication to unique content and partnerships with esteemed licensees is attracting new generations of loyal fans and accelerating demand for licensed products.
